Findings from a new University of Cincinnati study have reshaped the fundamental understanding of how a certain cell ...

Cells are not isolated units; they continuously exchange proteins, genetic material, and even entire organelles with their ...

For the first time, researchers have directly visualized how newly formed cellular organelles leave the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and transition onto microtubule tracks inside living cells. This new ...

UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers have identified how the quintessential immune protein known as stimulator of ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Scientists have long sought to decode the complex communication between cellular organelles that regulates virtually all aspects of human health and disease. Mitochondria and ...

Researchers have identified a physical process called “mitochondrial pearling” that explains how cells keep their ...

Bacteria are only the only organisms that are able to 'fix' nitrogen, or remove it from the atmosphere and convert it into a useful form. While some plants seem to fix nitrogen, it is actually ...

A collaboration unveils a novel strategy for identifying key proteins in organelle communication. This approach advances our ability to pinpoint proteins essential for organelle interactions within ...

Researchers develop a platform that uses nanotechnology to safely and reliably exchange intracellular material.

Researchers at ETH Zurich recently identified a previously unknown compartment in mammalian cells. They have named it the exclusome. It is made up of DNA rings known as plasmids. The researchers have ...

Two studies by scientists at the University of Chicago have demonstrated a new way to look into the inner workings of cells—in particular, to track the flow of ions inside the many tiny organelles ...
